The incense burner comprises a firezpan or base 1* above-which is supp'orteda cone core ori body .Z tha-t is provided with a tapered An objectof this invention is 'toprovide it a" simple, cheap, pleasing, ornamental l-ddld l0 ventilating: axial bore 3 with the r large end and spreading projections that: are more or less inverted c'oncave orcup shape. The hollow taper stand a is removably fitted-into the bore 3 and forms acone support the up eperendof-whi'c'h is a 'inetallic staiid adapted toxforma'a chimneyjto=seat in the bore 8 when thecone: is placed fth'ereon and to supportthe conewviththe bottom' en'd o 'thereof elevated above the level off the ri1n 6" of-the Fig. 41s a plan 'view of the cone sta nc'tand' wall 7 of therfire=pan"or base 1. The b'ottom i 8 of the stand 45 is provided with lateral eX- tensions 9 that are :seated in the pan 1" and are 1 adapted. Ito hold 'the stand 4 upright Draft openings 10 in the lower portion 8of the stand serve to supply air to; thej-burning incense" 11 in the stand kas indicatedby ar The incense For other desired gsmoke or odor emitting:substance ll m'ayxbe enblosed I in a wrapper asshown tin' Figi 2 o'rimay be core or body 2 into the bore 3, so that the fumes issuing from the passages 12 are caught in the cup shape smoke retaining deflectors 2 from which it is distributed to the surrounding air and the smoke may wind in pleasing artistic curls upward through the maze of deflectors 2 thus giving pleasure to the optical as well as to the olfactory The burner body 2 is preferably formed by boring a pine cone provided with its the lateral cup shaped deflectors. Said cone may be the seed cone of any coniferous tree or plant, drilled or bored to form the taper central bore 3 and the lateral outlets 12 which lead therefrom through the central stem or core 2 of the cone; so that smoke or fumes from burning incense will be directed underneath the loosely piled on the base i 1 insiderthe hollow stand as showniinFig. 8'. 'iThe inventionr comprises a cone-like ini cense burner body having projectingdeflecpine cone scales from which it may gather fragrance that will intermingle with the illcense fumes.

In practice the burner body or cone is fitted with the stand' l and said stand is stood up in the pan and the same may be removed from the pan 1, and the incense is then put in the pan and lit.

When a pine cone is employed as the incense burner body the stand or chimney 4 serves as means to prevent the ignition of the mounted pine cone by the burning incense or other smoke producing substance.

I claim.

1. An incense burner having a pine cone for a body and an opening therethrough; means connected with said pine cone for holding burning incense so that theismoke thereof will dischargethrough the opening in said cone.

2. A pine cone incense burner having a central bore with lateral outlets connected thereto for the emission of smoke; and means for holding burning incense and directing the smoke thereof so that said smoke will discharge from the lateral outlets.

A pine cone incense burner having a central bore with lateral outlets connected thereto; a hollow stand fitted into the central bore of said cone; and means for hold ing burning incense under said cone so that the smoke thereof will pass through said stand and discharge through the lateral openings in said cone.

4:. An incense burner comprising a base;

a chimney; lateral extensions at the base of said chimney for holding said chimney in an upright position relative to said base; and a pine cone having openings and so constructed and mounted on said chimney that smoke directed into said chimney will discharge through openings provided in said cone. i I

5. An 1ncense burner having a seed cone of a coniferous tree for a body and provided with a central bore and with lateral outlets for the emission of smoke directed into said central bore.

6. An incense burner comprising a base; a

chimney loosely mounted on said base; a

body comprising a seed cone of a coniferous tree and having openings therethrough and adapted to be so fitted over the upper end of said chimney that the smoke of incense burned between said base and chimney will discharge through the openings in said body.

7 An incense burner having a body comprising a seed cone of a coniferous tree that is provided with a bore and outlets leading from said bore; a base on which smoke producing substances may be burned; and a support for said body comprising a chimney adapted to be superimposed over burning substances on said base and to direct smoke therefrom to the bore of said body.

8. An incense burner having a body comprising a seed cone of a coniferous tree that is provided with abore and outlets leading from said bore; a base on which smoke producing substances may be burned; and a removable chimney inserted in said bore and adapted to be superimposed over burning substances on said base and to direct smoke therefrom to thebore of said body.

9. An incense burner having a body pro vided with a bore and lateral extensions there being outlets from said bore; means on which incense may be burned; and means for directing smoke from incense burned on said first mentioned means to the bore-of said body; said lateral extensions being more or less of an inverted cup shape in cross section and adapted toserve as smoke retaining and deflecting means.

In testimony whereof, I have hereunto set my hand at l-Ialleck, California, this 16th day of July, 1922.
